Mallery, C. J.

¶1 (concurring) — I feel wholly unable to foresee conditions and events eleven years hence. For this reason, I am reluctant to freeze the property of the parties in an undistributed status for that length of time. What may be equitable now may not be equitable then. I prefer to predicate an equitable disposition of the property upon the present known facts and circumstances rather than to attempt to predict what will be equitable at some future date. I therefore concur with the opinion of Judge Hill.

Steinert, J.

¶2 (concurring) — For the reason stated above by Judge Mallery, I concur in the result of the majority opinion wherein, and to the extent that, the interlocutory order of the trial court is affirmed in part and modified in part.

¶3 Robinson, J., concurs with Steinert, J.
